Big Screen Science: Quick Start Guide

Mirroring your databot data to the big screen with Vizeey™ and AirDroid Cast
Step 1 — Hardware Prep

Ensure your databot is charged and running the standard factory firmware. This is essential for stable Bluetooth communication with the Vizeey™ app.

  • Check: Turn on your databot and confirm it is ready for pairing.

  • App: Make sure you have the Vizeey™ app installed on your smartphone or tablet (iOS/Android).

Step 2 — Install the "Bridge" (AirDroid Cast)

To mirror your device screen, we will use the free AirDroid Cast utility.

  1. On your phone/tablet: Download and install the AirDroid Cast app from the App Store or Google Play.

  2. On your computer: Open your browser and visit webcast.airdroid.com. A QR code and a 9-digit cast code will appear on the screen.

Step 3 — The Connection Secret: Same Wi-Fi Network

To ensure a free, low-latency, and high-speed connection, follow this one vital rule:

  • Important: Ensure both your mobile device (running Vizeey) and your computer (receiving the cast) are connected to the same local Wi-Fi network. This allows for a direct, high-performance “Local Cast” connection.

Step 4 — Launch the Stream
  • Open AirDroid Cast on your phone.

  • Scan the QR code displayed on your computer screen or enter the 9-digit code manually.

  • Tap “Allow” on your computer and “Start Now” on your phone to begin mirroring. Your screen is now live!

Step 5 — Data Visualization

Now that your screen is mirrored, open Vizeey™ and start your experiment:

  1. Select your sensor (e.g., CO2, Accelerometer, or Temperature).

  2. Connect to your databot.

  3. Press the Play button (>) — and watch as your live data spikes and dips appear instantly on the big screen for all to see.
